My Project

Hello and thank you for checking out our Varying Exceptionalities (VE) classroom!

For those who may not know, a Varying Exceptionalities (VE) classroom includes many disabilities, or superpowers, as we call them, such as Autism, Language Impaired, Specific Learning Disabilities, Educational and Emotional Handicapped, and other disabilities in which may need extra support throughout the day.

I am requesting 2 pairs of speakers for my computers. The ones I currently have just broke and we are unable to hear our lessons. I am also requesting headphones for our tablets so my students can focus on their own work rather than hearing others. Lastly, I am requesting noise cancelling headphones for our friends with sensitive ears.
